2-Sterne-Hotels in Präfektur Okinawa, Japan

Da alle in meinem Zimmer und die anderen Gäste aus dem Ausland kamen, fühlte ich mich etwas unwohl, aber da ich nur eine Nacht dort verbrachte, machte ich mir keine großen Sorgen. Trotz des niedrigen Preises war die Ausstattung sehr gut, was mir sehr entgegenkam. Ich würde gerne wieder dort übernachten.

ReTime located just shy away from Asahibashi station and a perfect walking distance from KOKUSAI DORI shopping street, tourist spots and various supermarkets. The hotel offers capsule rooms, family rooms and a cabin themed room where you are assigned either a top or bottom bunk. You also receive free slippers and borrow sleepwear during your stay. The hotel also offers complimentary basic amenities such as toothbrush, comb, shower caps, razors if you need them. At the lobby, there’s a beautiful wooden set of keyed lockers to choose to put away your shoes upon entering the building. The common space is cleaned very frequently, almost every few hours (Japan's standards will make you rethink your definition of cleanliness) and where guests can eat and drink (water and additional soft drinks provided, there's also a vending machine with a nice selection of snacks). The space very pleasantly airy with lots of sun, and overall a nice place to work, snack or relax as the cabin and capsule rooms have no windows. I loved the creativity as you are essentially sharing a bunk bed with privacy that’s provided with a sliding screen door. It’s decent, with adequate room for luggage but few may struggle if the luggage is quite large as the aisle can be a bit narrow. This can be reflected from your neighbour next door at times~! I found overall it was very comfortable and I was assigned the top bunk during my long stay. The bed is clean, with complimentary cleaning on the 7th day (10am-3pm), and there’s a decent sized desk. The privacy of the cabin room is definitely the main highlight about ReTime if one wishes for privacy but reduced budget than a standard hotel room. A slight issue with this kind of arrangement is shutting the screen doors may end up being noisy (the screen door naturally reduces soundproofing). However having stayed for quite some time, I found the bed and room overall very comfortable and decently spaced. If I stayed longer, this would not be an issue as the bed was quite spacious personally. The shower option as opposed to the public onsen baths is much appreciated as 1) some women are not comfortable with the public baths, and 2) when that time of the month happens...this would reassure future guests planning to come to ReTime. The additional complimentary ammeties such as toner, cleanser and lotion were surpising and great to use also. Some crticisms regarding the stay: upon entering, I was told check in was at 4pm, which is quite later than average . I found a coin locker nearby but would have liked to be informed I could have stayed in the common area until check in if desired. It was a bit dissapointing as I could have saved a few hundred yen and energy after a flight. The washing machine instruction was unclear as the yellow button had to be pressed before scanning the touch bracelet, the step which is not in the images, and the staff member assisting was a bit rude (it likely shows the issue with this particular step had occurred many times). Perhaps putting some numbered stickers may help with step by step - especially turning that yellow button to green. Overall it’s a positive experience to recharge and stay long term, however I personally found that the service can be improved. Please note this is my own personal experience and I'm not affiliated or sponsored by ReTime. All photographs are taken by myself during the stay.

This is a four-room hotel run by a very kind and friendly man. He plays the sanshin and, if you request a meal in advance (around 2000 yen, if I remember correctly), he will entertain you as you eat. The building has concrete stairs, and the room, while adequate and pristine and good sized (for Japan) is nothing special. But the dark red tiled bathroom is the largest I have ever seen in Japan! You can enjoy an authentic Japanese bath here. I wish I could have this bathroom everywhere I stay! You are welcome to drinks in the refrigerator, and you can make a simple continental breakfast. There is a small ”super” nearby, and around 30 Soaplands, so you can see an important part of Japanese male culture. It is right near the 3 bus line (which, sadly, runs very irregularly), an authentic sanshin shop (run by an elderly master of Okinawan karate) and is easy walking distance to the Naha pier (ferries to Kagoshima), the Tsushushima museum, a Taoist temple and a Chinese-style garden which dates back 70 years. You can go up on the roof for a view, and you may be able to see the From the postcards pinned up on the wall to the books with extensive entries from Japanese patrons, I would say that the Japanese love this place! If you can speak even a little bit of Japanese, I recommend this place. The only negative is that the check in is at 4 PM.

港まで送迎してくれます。 大変おしゃれな室内でした。 室内にはコーヒー豆とミルが準備され、自身でひきたてのコーヒーを味わえるサービスがありおすすめです。 タオルとスリッパがふわふわで気持ちよかったです。 お料理も創作のコース料理で、味だけでなく見た目も満足でした。

Sehr schöner Ort für Backpackers. Ich konnte viele neue Leute treffen. Sie haben eine Art Deal mit einer lokalen Tauchfirma, so wenn im Hostel Sie Tauchen oder Snorkeling buchen können und einige Prozent vom Preis abziehen 👍🏼

Die Lage ist super gut, direkt neben der Kokusai-Straße! ~ Das Zimmer war größer als erwartet und die Schalldämmung war nicht gut. Das Husten und Schnarchen aus dem Nebenzimmer war deutlich zu hören. Es gibt keine Vorhänge an den Fenstern, daher ist es morgens zu hell zum Schlafen😅 Es wäre praktischer, wenn hinter der Tür einige Haken angebracht würden. Das Badezimmer würde gerne öfter gereinigt werden, ist aber noch akzeptabel

I recently stayed at Bibi Hotel Miyako Kukomae, and it turned out to be an excellent base for exploring Miyako Island. The hotel is modern, clean, and surprisingly spacious for the price. Check-in was fully digital, making arrival smooth and stress-free, especially after a long flight. My room was bright and well-designed, with a comfortable bed, fast Wi-Fi, and all the essentials for a relaxing stay. I especially appreciated the washing machine and mini-kitchen, which made the trip more convenient. Everything felt new and well maintained. The location is ideal—just a short drive from Miyako Airport and close to supermarkets and local eateries. It was easy to pick up food or hop in the car to the beaches. Sunayama Beach and Yonaha Maehama were both within quick reach. Despite the convenience, the neighborhood was quiet at night, allowing for a restful sleep. Parking was simple and free, which is a huge plus on Miyako Island. The self-service system meant I could come and go at any time without worrying about reception hours. Overall, Bibi Hotel Miyako Kukomae offers great value, comfort, and convenience. It’s perfect for travelers who want a clean, practical, and well-located base while discovering the beauty of Miyako Island.

Wir hatten ein Doppelzimmer gebucht, da wir zu zweit reisten. Die Fotos vermittelten den Eindruck eines komplett privaten Zimmers, doch der obere Teil des Zimmers war nicht von den anderen Zimmern abgetrennt, sodass wir Geräusche aus den Nachbarzimmern hören konnten (dieser Bereich war auf den Fotos nicht zu sehen). Die anderen Gäste waren jedoch alle sehr ruhig, sodass wir nachts nicht gestört wurden. Die Bettwäsche war sauber und frei von Schmutz und Müll, was für einen angenehmen Aufenthalt sorgte. Die Lage ist fußläufig zur Kokusai-Straße, und obwohl dort spät abends nicht mehr viel los ist, finde ich die Lage gut. Der Drehknopf für den Zimmerschließfach war etwas schwierig zu bedienen.

We are very happy with the stay and would come back. The twin rooms are spacious, clean and have a balcony. Due to the proximity of the Main Street which our balcony was facing, we could hear the occasional loud car noise during the night. The hallways leading to the rooms had a moldy smell and some large mold spots, which is difficult to avoid given the high humidity. However, the rooms have not been affected at all.

Ich habe in einem Kapselhotelzimmer übernachtet. Es war etwas geräumiger als andere Gästehäuser, etwa 160 cm breit, sodass ich mich nicht eingeengt fühlte. Obwohl es aus Holz ist, hat es ein stilvolles Design, was mir sehr gefällt. Ich war dankbar, dass ich mein Gepäck schon vor dem Einchecken abgeben durfte. Um 23 Uhr wurde das Licht ausgeschaltet, daher war der Aufenthaltsraum nicht mehr zugänglich, aber ich konnte meine Mahlzeiten in Ruhe einnehmen. Da wahrscheinlich nicht viele andere Gäste da waren, war es sehr ruhig. Ich würde es gerne wieder buchen, wenn ich bei den Reisekosten sparen möchte!
